    Received my high output alternator in the mail today.. that's going in this week along with the 0G wire kit.. Brembo's are finally getting prepped this week for powdercoating.. Next week is fresh paint for rear bumper, fender flares and new front bumper.. New OEM Infinity amp is going in next week along with new interior carpeting.. I think that's all for now..

    ^^^ I have that same code, they want an arm and leg for the pre-cat.... soulution remove CEL bulb. ( So I dont have to look at them)

    When I went for smog, put bulb on. Cleared code and surprisingly passed with OBD II plugged in. Light came back on pulled bulb again.

    IMO cali spec precat not worth $400 when next year she Gets 4g63T

    Its cake to swap, hardest thing is getting the 02 to budge without damaging it, you'll need the socket for it and change the gaskets.

    I see, looks like a few bolts, similar setup to this '01 tiburon cat I changed a while back...That was easy. Gotta get the tool, the Snap-On man will be at work Thursday I'll holla at him.
